Events, meetings, conferences and trainings
FIDELIO aims to train the next generation of scientists in order to tackle the challenges of diabetic bone disease from various angles and with the newest technologies available. Interdisciplinary training, intersectoral exchange and implementation of innovative approaches are the key. The training programme and experience of different international research environments cuts across traditional data and life sciences silos. The emphasis on translational research will support new collaborations between academics, the (bio)technology and health sector.
Dates
All ESRs will participate in network-wide meetings/events designed to complement the local research training of young researchers. These Meetings will be arranged so that each provides: courses on relevant research issues, presentation of the fellows‘ work and complementary skills/training.
Critical Appraisal of Real-World Evidence
Location:
ETH, Zurich, Switzerland
Date:
December 2-4, 2020
Fundamentals of mechanical testing and computational modelling of bone
Location:
UKE, Hamburg, Germany
Date:
February 3-5, 2021
#7 Basics of RNA isolation using spin column-based extraction kits
Location: Qiagen, Hilden, Germany
Date: April 15-16, 2021
This 2 day workshop we will outline the complete workflow from samples collection, nucleic acid extraction as well as downstream analysis. During the workshop we will cover the necessity of stabilization, the right choice of the extraction method and the requirements for the downstream analysis. It will also include a practical approach for miRNA isolation and downstream analysis.
Mid Term Meeting
Location:
Brüssel
Date:
May 5-6, 2021
Monthly Webinar Series
Each month, FIDELIO offers hour-long webinars on topics of key interest to mainly Fidelio ESRs in nonformal settings to expand the scope of knowledge of the programme.
Next Webinar in October!
FIDELIO webinars are open to all, with registration. To register, please send us a message through our contact form, including your email address and organisation, if applicable.

Bioenergetics, mitochondria and diabetes
Speaker: Paula Fernandez Guerra (SDU)
Date: Thursday 29th October, 1400-1500 CET
From the southern point of Europe, the Canary Islands, to the Nordic countries, Denmark, I have been studying rare metabolic disorders with a focus on mitochondrial medicine. Currently, I am focused on understanding the role of mitochondria in bone metabolism in metabolic disorders. Combining the use of cellular models with clinical studies, I try to understand the molecular mechanisms of diseases to find adequate therapies for each patient
Sims Tips and tricks for histomorphometry
Speaker: Nathalie Sims
Date: Thursday, 12th November 2020, 09:00 – 10:00 CET
In cooperation with https://ectsoc.org/education/e-learning/webinars/
Register based research – from bench to bedside, the power of big data on public and personal health
Speaker: Andrea Burden (ETH) & Peter Vestergaard (STENO)
Date: Tuesday, 24th November, 14:00 – 15:00 CET
Public or private healthcare registers capture data on drug use and health events, including visits to general practitioners and hospitals as well as specialists, deaths, migrations and causes of death. With these data we describe, assess causality, and predict the association between drug utilizaiton and the occurrence of health outcomes. Thus, these data can be used to identify and test hypotheses about the effects of drugs or diseases (e.g., how diabetic medications or other diseases may impact bone health) identified from pre-clinical and clinical knowledge. But they can also be used to generate ideas about the unintended effects of certain drugs and diseases on bone health, and thus unveil potential signalling pathways for further exploration in animal and human studies. In this webinar, Dr. Peter Vestergaard and Dr. Andrea Burden will provide an overview of the different types of healthcare register data available, providing examples in bone research to exemplify how we can integrate epidemiologic and basic research to advance our knowledge on fracture risk.
